Airborne Platforms to Advance NASA Earth System Science Priorities: Assessing the Future Need for a Large Aircraft

National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences,Division on Earth and Life Studies,Space Studies Board,Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and other U.S. science research agencies operate a fleet of research aircraft and other airborne platforms that offer diverse capabilities. To inform NASA’s future investments in airborne platforms, this study examines whether a large aircraft that would replace the current NASA DC-8 is needed to address Earth system science questions, and the role of other airborne platforms for achieving future Earth system science research goals.
